Chapter 497
Qin Huaidao sat in the living room for New Year's Eve dinner. The whole family was there, only seven or eight people. After dinner, Qin Huaidao and the others arrived at the living room, which was also decorated very well.
Qin Huaidao and Qin Shandao played Gozi chess, which was taught to them by Qin Huaidao. However, Li Lixian and Wu Mei didn't know yet, so a few people sat there to give Qin Shan the idea. Gozi chess was simple, and it was easy to get started, much simpler than Go.
"Shan Dao, I'll do it. Your elder brother bullies you. If you continue playing like this, your elder brother will win your little money!" Li Lixian said to Qin Shandao, and at the same time asked Qin Shandao to get out of the way, she came.
"Sister-in-law Wu, let's play a game too. I'll go and get Go!" Qin Jiao said as she looked at Wu Mei.
"Be careful to lose all the dowry to your sister-in-law Wu!" Qin Huaidao smiled and reminded Qin Jiao, saying, Wu Mei's lower body must be powerful.
"Go, how could it be possible? You have to leave some for her, otherwise she would hate me, my sister-in-law, to death?" Wu Mei smiled and hit Qin Huaidao and said,
Then he got off with Qin Jiao. Sure enough, Qin Jiao was no match for Wu Mei at all and was defeated.
"Brother, you and Sister Wu, I and Sister Wu!" Qin Jiao saw that this was wrong, and Li Lixian was losing in another direction.
"Okay, let me learn about your sister-in-law Wu!" Qin Huaidao walked over with a smile and said, then went down with Wu Mei,
I have to say that Wu Mei is so powerful. Qin Huaidao played Goji with him. If he didn't play 100 pieces, it would be difficult to decide the winner. Later, Li Lixian and the others came to see the masters fight.
After a while, it was already very late. Qin Jiao and Wu Mei and the others could not stand it anymore. Qin Huaidao let them sleep, and he continued to stay with Qin Shandao for the New Year.
The next morning, Qin Huaidao got up early, first opened the door, shouted "Open the door", then took Qin Shandao to worship his ancestors, and then prepared food.
On the morning of the first day of the Chinese New Year, men came to prepare food, and the men at home worked. After breakfast in the morning, Qin Huaidao took Qin Shandao to the palace to wish His Majesty, the Prince, and the Empress.
In the palace, Li Shimin had already prepared it. Today is grand. All the snacks in the palace are customized by the Qin Mansion dim sum shop. And everyone in the past also gave a small gift, which was a small jadeware. This was specially made by the jade workshop of the Ministry of Works, specifically for today's preparations.
Li Shimin is rich now and is much more generous to the ministers below.
"Boping, don't you drink?" Li Shimin saw Qin Huaidao hiding at Cheng Chusi's table, and was still hiding behind the pillar, and called him father in the direction of Qin Huaidao.
"Father, there are still many things at home. That, Father, will I drink with you another day? Today I haven't gone to other Dukes' houses to pay New Year's greetings!" Qin Huaidao stood up with a smile, bowed to Li Shimin and said.
"No, come here, I'll drink here, so I don't need to pay New Year's greetings. Anyway, I'm so familiar, when can't I go? Come here, no one will blame you for not going today!" Cheng Yaojin greeted Qin Huaidao with a smile, and Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Yaojin depressedly.
"I'll tell you, my father is going crazy, no matter whether he is friends or friends, he will be injured. Did he see this time?" Cheng Chusi pulled Qin Huaidao's sleeve and said in a low voice.
"I've seen it!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said in a low voice.
"Come here, Yao Jin was right just now. It's okay if you don't come today. I've drunk the same thing here!" Li Jing also smiled and touched his beard.
"This, spare me. On the first day of the New Year, you will let me vomit back. This is not a good thing, right?" Qin Huaidao looked at them depressedly.
"It's okay, I won't let you get drunk, I just come over and chat!" Li Shimin greeted Qin Huaidao and said. Qin Huaidao had no choice but to carry his own wine glass.
However, as they said, there was no drinking, just chatting, drinking, but the chat was theirs. Their veterans were collectively recalling their youth, Qin Huaidao, the prince, and the King of Wu sat wherever they listened.
After he shouted, they started to toast. Finally, they were able to go back to the mansion. When they arrived at the mansion, Li Lixian discovered Qin Huaidao's smell of wine.
"My father will drink you early in the morning?" Li Lixian was so depressed that she stared at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"It's not your father, it's your father and those veterans. Alas, I'm afraid of them. I'm going to lie down for a while. When ordinary guests come, please greet me. If it's an important guest, call me!" Qin Huaidao said to Li Lixian. Li Lixian nodded with a smile, and then returned to the study to sleep.
There are a lot of people coming to pay New Year's greetings today, but not everyone can meet Li Lixian. Ordinary people are hosted by housekeepers and managers. It would be nice if Li Lixian could come out to meet them.
In the afternoon, some of the military generals came to pay New Year's greetings. Some of them knew Qin Huaidao, while others did not know Qin Huaidao, but it did not prevent Qin Huaidao from having a good relationship with them. The military generals were just direct and said whatever they wanted.
"Come on, come to the side room, the first time you are here. If you don't force you to drink, drink as much as you want, and drink tea. Let's have a chat together,
Although I served in Zuowuwei, I haven't been there for a long time. I don't know many people. Since I am a brother who makes rice in a pot, I don't say much, just casually, how can I be happy?" Qin Huaidao smiled and greeted the generals.
The generals also laughed. They were all cursing Qin Huaidao now and knew Qin Huaidao's ability. This reform of the military headquarters was led by Qin Huaidao.
Although Qin Huaidao is not responsible for specific matters, everyone knows that Qin Huaidao's position in His Majesty's mind is very high and cannot be compared with them.
So they came here and wanted to make friends with Qin Huaidao and get to know him.
"Okay, Duke Hu is happy. Everyone says Duke Hu is very similar to his father. It is indeed well-known. Don't drink too much here today. Let's make an appointment. How about we drink at the Qinfu Restaurant? The Qinfu Restaurant opened on the fourth day of the first lunar month. How about we doing that day?" A general said to Qin Huaidao with a smile. Although he is a general, he does not have any titles. Compared with Qin Huaidao, his status is far inferior.
"Can't you decide? I wonder how many people there were in the Qin Mansion Restaurant that day!" a general said.
"I don't like to listen to you. Others can't make reservations, but I can't make reservations. On the fourth day of the lunar month, Qin Mansion Restaurant, my special private room can accommodate more than 50 people for dinner, everyone goes!" Qin Huaidao heard it and said to them with a smile.
"Uh, hahaha, Duke Hu, it's mine. In this way, I will punish myself for three cups, three cups, and I should punish me!" When the general who had just spoken, he immediately thought that the Qin Mansion Restaurant was from Qin Huai Taoist, so now he knows that he said the wrong thing.
"It's time to punish us generals. We are the man. We admit it, we are wrong, we admit it, okay, we have decided. On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, we come here if we have time. Not only will I book my private room, but I have all the three private rooms around me.
We, brothers of generals, should also know each other. If we don’t meet, it will be embarrassing!” Qin Huaidao said to them with a smile.
When they heard this, they nodded with a smile. When they heard Qin Huaidao say this, they were also happy and knew that Qin Huaidao was a very easy-to-talk person. As long as they did not violate the principled mistakes, Qin Huaidao would not easily turn against others.
"Duke Hu, go busy, don't worry about us. We know that there must be many customers in your house!" A general said to Qin Huaidao.
At this time, Qin Daniu's two younger brothers also came to pay New Year's greetings, and Qin Huaidao also found Qin Daniu talking to them.
"Big Niu, Da Niu, call your two younger brothers here!" Qin Huaidao smiled and greeted Qin Da Niu.
"Ah, oh, okay!" Qin Daniu was stunned when he heard this, then turned his head and said to his two younger brothers: "You two boys are lucky, and you are here right today! Talk well later!"
As he said that, he took his two younger brothers to Qin Huaidao.
"Come on, let me introduce you. This is my child of the Qin Mansion! Come on, let me introduce you to them!" Qin Huaidao said to Qin Daniu's two younger brothers with a smile.
"Hello, generals, I'm humble in my position as Qin Zhiyuan!"
"Hello, generals, I'm humble in my position as Qin Zhiyong!" Qin Daniu's two younger brothers immediately spoke,
These two names were given by Qin Huaidao, and Qin Daniu also gave them the name of Qin Huaidao, Qin Zhizhong!
"Brother of Zuo Wu Guard?" A general of Zuo Wu Guard saw the two of them and asked.
"Go back to General! Yes!" Qin Zhiyuan said happily after seeing the person clearly. This general was his direct boss's boss, and he was not sure how many levels he was taller.
"Haha, come and have a drink!" The general said to Qin Zhiyuan with a smile when he heard this.
"Okay, go, by the way, don't bully them, newcomer, I just joined Zuo Wuwei, I was my family soldier before, so you can take care of me,
As for me, I have something to deal with. Today I won’t accompany you. By the way, I’ll go to the pleasure boat after drinking. Over there, I’ve booked two pleasure boats. Are you going to play?" Qin Huaidao said to the generals with a smile.
"Ah, Duke Hu, is it like this on the first day of the Lunar New Year?" A general looked at Qin Huaidao with a smile and asked.
"Who asked you to do such a thing? I asked you to come over. There was a girl with you to drink with you. It's true!" Qin Huaidao said with a smile and pointed at the general.
"Ah, hahaha, yes, I was wrong, I will punish myself for three cups, three cups!" The general heard it and said with a smile.
"Zhiyuan, Zhiyong!" Qin Huaidao smiled and called Qin Daniu's two younger brothers.
"Master!" The two of them immediately bowed and looked at Qin Huai.
"Helcome those generals for the master. You have to accompany you. Don't drink too much. Go to the pleasure boat later. Tell me about the casual manager here, and they will arrange someone immediately!" Qin Huaidao said to Qin Daniu's two younger brothers.
